Subject: drivers/scsi/aic7xxx_old.c: remove redundant GFP_ATOMIC from kmalloc
From: Satyam Sharma <ssatyam@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
drivers/scsi/aic7xxx_old.c:aic7xxx_slave_alloc() unnecessarily passes
GFP_ATOMIC (along with GFP_KERNEL) to kmalloc() from a context that is not
atomic. Remove the pointless GFP_ATOMIC.
